Abstract

The β-amino compounds were synthesized from α,β-unsaturated esters, nitriles and amine using water as a solvent in the presence of 10 mol % Cu(I) catalyst in high yields within 2-5 min under ultrasound irradiation at room temperature. The reaction rate was enhanced tremendously under ultrasound irradiation as compared to conventional methods with improved yields have been recorded.

Keywords

Cu(I) catalyst Aza-Michael reactions Ultrasound irradiation Amine α β-Unsaturated compounds.
